Ah,
[Cm]
[Fm]
[C]
not with the lips of skin, nor yet with the lips of dark snow,
But let the white of sin, of [Cm] the [Eb] body of life, of the lover whose love [C] is complete,
Hold hands out to greet, ah, let [Cm]
not the swan be brought [Bb]
low.
[Dm] [F] [C] For all that is moving is moved by her hand, she is mirrored forever in the light of the lands,
In the building of thoughts, in the shifting of sounds.
[G]
[Cm]
[C]
Life, remembering, [Cm] well here you are now, oh now [Eb] you are here,
Well how has it [Gm] been so [C] far?
The hare and the fur, lemons, frankincense [F] and [Bb]
[Dm] myrrh,
[F] [Cm] For all that is moving is moved by her hand, she is mirrored forever in the light of the lands,
In [C] the building of thoughts, in the shifting of sounds.
[G]
[C]
[Cm]
Let the [C] crack crystal [Ab] rain drop [C] [G]
emerge in the [Gm] sea,
[G] [F]
Silent [Fm]
[Cm] shining
[Cm] thoughtless [G] breeze,
[C] But close your eyes to find the golden [Cm]
flowers,
And open them to see the sunshine [C] shower,
Where the flowers are free and the fishes are washed and [G] watered [Cm] beneath.
She bears thoughts, she bears visions, seeking truth in contradiction,
Dreams of pain, dreams of laughter, and every action follows after.
[F] Oh, second sun, oh goddess of [Cm] mystery, [F] I love you with gold [Cm] of meek,
Guide me with the gold of [Cm] cave just weak, Grant me the song that all the earth [G] does sing.
[Dm]
[C]
Vibrating life, forever wonder sun, The book of life, as though monstrous,
There'll be no secrets, with me in stars.
[Cm]
